Lyrics
SHE SAID NO
I hear the lame might someday leap
The silent all shall speak
I hear the lion longs to sleep
Amid the small and meek
I ask do you believe these things
Please tell me, is it so
She said no
We lived inside a crooked house
We swallowed crooked bread
The clothes we wore were inside out
We dreamed a crooked bed
I asked do you remember when
You held me long ago
She said no
She said no-one knows
How the heart can close
I asked will you try
She said why
I heard a lonesome whistle blow
Where she caught the train
I asked her then if and when
She?d be back again
And will you not return to me
My heart...before you go
She said no
